the thing that sums this custom tailor most is their reliability. From the time I placed the order, till the time it came in, till the time I came to pick it up everything was just handled so professionally. There was no hassle at all. Look, I liked the suits, but I weigh over 300lbs so no suit is going to make me look slim. This place did fit me well but Fred Astaire i am not. It was just so nice to do business with a place that does not make excuses and does everything that they are supposed to do.

My company rewarded me and splurged for a custom suit. I am 6'10 and usaully shop at Rochester Big and Tall in Manhattan. I was very skeptical getting a suit made for me from Hong Kong but it was free so what the heck. I apologize to everybody in Hong Kong because the suit came in beautiful-a Loro Piana blue windowpane where the lines actually matched up. What I liked most about it was the pants were so slim, always a difficult task with my large butt. Do yourself a facor and check them out.

My sons bar mitzvah was last saturday and I just received the photos back. My husband and son both got custom by Murray for the big day. My husband is a bit round in the stomach and my boy, while perfect in my eyes, is a hard fit. I was in a rush to pick up the suits so never really took a good look at them but when I saw him on the stage praying next to my husband and now in the photos, they just look so good. I received so many compliments about them, more on them then on my dress, which is just fine with me. Alan, you helped make my special day perfect and we have the pictures to prove it. Wanted to say thank you from the bottom of a very proud mothers heart.

Murray Alan is a great custom suit store. They really understand what it takes to make somebody happy. I have had so much fit trouble through the years, I have tried traveling salesmen, high end boutiques, nothing ever fits. I needed suits but just had run out of places to try. So I went to Murray Alan and was ready to buy 3 suits. They actually talked me out of it and told me to try one to get the fit down and then if I am happy to buy others. Talk about being professional, and they were right. The first suit came in very good and I was thrilled but nothing like the next 2 which needed zero adjustments at all. Best is now they have my measurements so I just need to pick fabric. I am still amazed that there are people around willing to do the honest thing for the sake of me, the customer. Also, tremendous service.

I went to Murray Alan because of the prices I saw online. I looked at all the packages and even though the lower priced ones were very appealing I went with the Scabal one. I have been wearing customs suits for a while and know all of the fabrics. Scabal is a great fabric and I have paid over $2000 for an individual one at times. No more-$2500 for 3 suits-go with this package, it is a super 130's and is dynamite. I cant believe how cheap it is but I picked them up last week and all I can say is WOW. But go for the higher price packages, there is more value there. I will be back for more, I have a new home now.

I had finally met the girl of my dreams and my wedding is on December 11th. I went to a small tuxedo rental place that my future brother in law recommended and rented tuxes for myself as well as my 2 older and much more responsible brothers. I went to pick them up the Monday before my wedding and they just fit horribly. I was appalled and realized with my weird shape I would need to go custom 9my brothers ended up renting at Mens Wearhouse and did okay). I called a few places but this but this one was the only one that would guarantee delivery so I went for it, eyes wide shut. The tuxedo came in 2 days before the wedding, which was fine, we knew it would be close. What I did not know is that I would not need one adjustment. It was truly a miracle, they saved my ass, I was so desperate I didn't even tell my fiancee. Put your trust in Murray Alan, they really came through bigtime.

Needed some custom shirts for the office and hate to shop. A friend let me know bout this place. I was worried because the place is a bit dingy, but got the shirts and they fit, really fit-I mean really fit. Staff is also really nice and accomodating. Would give 5 stars but store is a bit run down.
